**Notes:** [101] Maximum hourly throughput = Design capacity of emission unit:

Kiln 1 Indurating Furnace 600LT pellets/hr 590MM Btu/hr Kiln 2 Indurating Furnace 600LT pellets/hr 590MM Btu/hr Note that although Kilns 1 and 2 can also fire used oil, the highest NOx emissions are from natural gas and coal respectively so calculations on used oil are not provided. [102] Maximum hourly throughput = Design Heat input of emission unit (MM Btu/hr), converted to fuel units (1000 gallons/hr or MM cf/hr) using the following heat contents: Used oil (assumed residual oil) 150MM Btu/1000 gals (from AP-42, May 2010, Table 1.3-2 footnote d)

Natural gas 1,020MM Btu/MM cf (from AP-42, July 1998, Table 1.4-1 footnote a)

70MM Btu/hr heat input (EU-OREDRYER1) 125MM Btu/hr heat input (EU-OREDRYER2) 225MM Btu/hr heat input (EU-BOILERS1-2) Each 240MM Btu/hr heat input (EU-BOILER3) [103] Maximum annual throughput = Maximum hourly throughput x 8,760 hrs/yr. [104] Emission factor based upon stack test data from May 2004. [105] Permit limit specified in ROP MI-ROP-B4885-2008a, issued 8/19/2010, pages and 33. [106] Emission factor based upon stack test data from January 2012, which is 2270 lb NOx/hr at 515 LT/hr equals 4.4 lb NOx/LT. [107] AP-42, May 2010, Table 1.3-1 for Boilers firing #6 residual oil, normal firing. Sulfur content of fuel is assumed to be no greater than 1.50 wt.% based upon ROP limitation for used oil. Note that AP-42, May 2010, Table 1.3-1 for Boilers >100 MM Btu/hr has slightly lower factor for NOx than boilers < 100 MM Btu/hr but the same factor is conservatively used for both Ore Dryers. [108] AP-42, July 1998, Table 1.4-1 for Small Boilers < 100 MM Btu/hr uncontrolled [109] AP-42, July 1998, Table 1.4-1 for Large Wall-fired boilers > 100 MM Btu/hr, uncontrolled (Pre-NSPS). [110] AP-42, July 1998, Table 1.4-2. [111] NA - The permit limit in the ROP provides a limit of 28,800 pounds per day.
